For effective remote education using multimedia, it is necessary to develop efficient management techniques of video information. This requires real-time processing of video information which should be managed and retrieved in a compressed forms. The main technology of compressing video is currently MPEG-2. This implies that it is very important to manage and retrieve video compressed in MPEG-2, and then to process the video in real-time for the remote education environment using multimedia. This paper is to develop the management system of video information which is one of the most critical requirements in remote education systems for managing and retrieving MPEG-2 video.

본 논문에서는 영상 데이터베이스에서의 색인화를 위해 화소간의 엔트로피(inter-pixel entropy)측면에서 영상을 해석하여 특징을 추출하는 색인기법을 제안하였다. 엔트로피를 정량적으로 나타내기 위하여 PIM(picture information measure)에 기반한 특징을 각각의 영상들로부터 추출하여 색인으로 사용하였다. 엔트로피에 기반 하는 특징은 한 영상에 대하여 3가지를 추출하였다. 첫 번째 특징은 원 영상으로부터 직접 값들을 추출하였고 영상의 해상도와 그레이 레벨을 낮추어 가면서 얻어지는 영상들로부터 두 번째, 세번째 의 엔트로피 특징을 각각 추출하였다. 일반적으로 영상의 경우에 엔트로피가 높은 영역에 정보가 집중되는 경향이 있고 엔트로피가 낮은 영역에서는 배경 영역 등의 정보를 추출하게된다. 이러한 이유로 색채 특쟁은 엔트로피에 따라서 분리된 영역에서 추출하였다. 전역검색(global search)은 엔트로피 특징을 이용하였고 색채 특징을 이용하여 지역 검색(local search)을 시도하였다. 실험은 색채와 엔트로피로 식별이 유용한 꽃 영상을 사용하였는데 원치 않는 영상이 상위 단계에서 나타나는 빈도가 기존의 타 기법에 비해 줄어들었다.

This paper presents an efficient and automatic color and motion feature extraction algorithm for content-based MPEG-l video retrieval. Based on the proposed method. a video retrieval system is implemented. For color feature. the proposed algorithm considers dynamic color iRformation in video data, and thereby can overcome the limits of the previous key-frame based method. For motion feature, we utilize the motion vector in MPEG-l video with color information. and extract the color-motion feature. The proposed algorithm can solve the weakness of the previous location based motion feature method. Finally. the proposed method is evaluated within the implemented video retrieval system.

The medical information system is an effective medical diagnosis assistance system which offers an environment in which medial images and diagnosis information can be shared. However, this system can only stored and transmitted information without other functions. To resolve this problem and to enhance the efficiency of diagnostic activities, a medical image classification and retrieval system is necessary. The medical image classification and retrieval system can improve efficiency in a medical diagnosis by providing disease-related images and can be useful in various medical practices by checking diverse cases. However, it is difficult to understand the meanings contained in images because the existing image classification and retrieval system has handled superficial information only. Therefore, a medical image classification system which can classify medical images by analyzing the relation among the elements of the image as well as the superficial information has been required. In this paper, we propose the method for learning and classification of brain MRI, in which the superficial information as well as the spatial information extracted from images are used. The superficial information of images, which is color, shape, etc., is called low-level image information and the logical information of the image is called high-level image information. In extracting both low-level and high-level image information in this paper, the anatomical names and structure of the brain have been used. The low-level information is used to give an anatomical name in brain images and the high-level image information is extracted by analyzing the relation among the anatomical parts. Each information is used in learning and classification. In an experiment, the MRI of the brain including disease have been used.

컴퓨터 통신 기술의 급속한 발달로 인해 정지영상, 오디오, 비디오와 같은 다양한 미디어로 구성된 대용량의 멀티미디어 자료를 효율적으로 저장하고 관리할 수 있는 하부 저장 시스템이 필요하다. 이러한 멀티미디어 자료에 대한 내용-기반 검색을 위해 텍스트 기반 검색과 색상 또는 질감과 같은 특징 벡터에 기반한 검색이 이루어져야 한다. 본 논문에서는 멀티미디어 응용을 위한 하부저장 시스템을 구현하기 위해 미국 위스콘신 대학에서 개발한 지속성 객체 시스템인 SHORE를 확장하고자 한다. 텍스트 기반 검색을 위해 역화일 구조를 구현하였으며, 고차원의 특징 벡터의 검색을 위해 X-트리를 통합하였다.

In this paper, this program which is Retrieval System using Image Gray-scale histogram and Edge features is used to reduce the errors incurred by inputting methods which are used in a current Retrieval System. The Retrieval Algorithm is proceeding with several steps which are extracting features of images quality, extracting edge features and refining images, analysing extracted features, retaining important information from analyzed features, retrieving retained information from database, extracting and comparing among images from retrieved database. The proposed Retrieval System is used for a fast retrieval with accuracy and it is confirmed through simulations.

Moving picture has become the important media in education with expanded e-learning paradigm, but Korea Educational Metadata has limitation about representing information of lots of events and objects in moving picture. Announcing the MPEG-7 specification the information of lots of events and objects in it can be presented in terms of semantic and structural description of moving pictures. In this paper moving picture searching system model that integrates two metadata specifications, such as KEM and MPEG-7, is proposed. In this model one ontology to combine two metadata specifications is designed, and the other ontology about knowledge of a subject matter is added to search efficiently in searching system. As some moving picture data from Edunet were selected and stored in our server, our prototype of searching system using MPEG-7 and KEM shows the results that we are expected.

In this paper, hierarchical retrieval system based on efficient feature extraction is proposed. In order to retrieval the image with robustness for geometrical transformation such as translation, scaling, and rotation. After performing the 2-level wavelet transform on image, We extract moment in low-level subband which was subdivided into subimages and texture feature, contrast of GLCM(Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix). At first we retrieve the candidate images in database by the ones of image. To perform a more accurate image retrieval, the edge information on the high-level subband was subdivided horizontally, vertically and diagonally. And then, the energy rate of edge per direction was determined and used to compare the energy rate of edge between images for higher accuracy.

In this paper, we propose a image retrieval algorithm using spatial information and color changing ratio. The proposed method extracts color regions from images by threshold $\tau$ to extract spatial information. During this process, we count extracted color regions and color changing, and these values are used to obtain color changing ratio. Image similarity between images is measured by extracted spatial information. Additively, color changing ratio makes images that has similar color changing ratio to be more higher retrieval rank. In our experiment using various natural images, we demonstrate a proposed method shows better performance than other common retrieval methods using color informations.
